A man sat on a busy sidewalk. Around his neck hung a sign which read, simply, "I am blind."
"Each of us knows those who do not have sight. We also know others who
have their eyesight but who walk in darkness at noonday
"Some have been blinded by anger, others by indifference, by revenge, by hate, by prejudice, by ignorance, by neglect of precious opportunities. Of such the Lord said, 'Their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them."'
From Simon Peter to the Apostle Paul, from the miracle at the pool of Siloam to the revelation in the Sacred Grove, the scriptures burst with accounts of the healing of the blind and the restoration of light in dark lives.
"The passage of time has not altered the capacity of the Redeemer to change men's lives. As he said to the dead Lazarus, so he says to you and to me: 'Come forth."'
